The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms. FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints and disputes as well as regulatory sanctions. In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.

  • FINRA Case 15-1550-a customer while Block was registered with Oppenheimer & Co. alleges churning, unsuitability, breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the customer’s account. Damages are alleged to be $100,000.
